@SuperTitanicfreak Notice the suite bathroom with the satin upholstered walls at 0.56 and the suite at 0.59 with the painting above the beds shaped like a 1950's TV set.- a little surrealism, like the mosaic bar off the cabin class pool or the cactus-print curtains in some cabins. So much cool stuff was on that ship (each of its bars had a futuristic looking espresso machine). Post war Italian modern design at its best!

Thanks for remembering the Andrea Doria in her glory. She was the first Italian liner built after WW2 and I am sure many were proud to have emigrated to the U.S. aboard her. "La Dolce Vita" is fitting music - Italian Line crossed the Atlantic on "the sunny southern route" - out of the Mediterranean/Strait of Gibraltar and not from England, so the pools and the decks were a big part of shipboard life. Thanks for omitting the July 25, '56 event - being reminded of her tragic end is sad. Good job!

@2175Wook not sure about the translation of those measures in italian, anyway i think that deadweight was 29.950 tons and empty weight was 19.941 tons. The ship was about 29.000 gross tons.

This music is banging. The Andrea Doria is beautiful beyond anything. She outclass united states, & only Normandie & the first two Queens rival the Andrea Doria.

@SuperTitanicfreak The music is "La dolce vita" from the famous Fellini's movie
